Very misleading if you think about each topic one at a time. Just saying.

It had to make up for the contraction in the first quarter. To bring this year to a squash.

Most of this is due to Medicare and healthcare spending coming to a screeching halt. As a conservative do you favor more health care spending for Medicare and Medicaid? Health Care spending is still less than 18% of GDP with 10 million more people insured.

It is amusing to see the Democrat Senators up for re-election are trying to bash Obama for his stance against coal and oil in order to turn their constitutes minds away from the fact that all of them supported Obamacare. It ain't gonna work. Their Republican opponents will show miles of videos where they parroted Obama's lies, "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor", "If you like your hospital, you can keep your hospital", and "The average family will receive a $2500.00 refund from their insurance companies." These words and the fact that the first Black president will now go into the history books as being the first sitting President in history to be sued by Congress.

I dont remember President Obama ever claiming that if you "like your hospital, you can keep it" or that anyone would get a 2,500 dollar refund. Do you mind backing up your "quotes" ?

Also, "sued" is the stupidest qualifier I have ever seen seeing as impeachment is worse(Johnson,Nixon,Clinton).

Thats like saying Al Gore is the first sitting VP to lose by 5 electoral votes when other sitting VP's have lost the electoral college by 50+ or didnt even win their parties nomination.

To be honest. The first quarter was revised. I think from a negative -2.9 to a negative -2.1
